Hi all, fed up new member here!

Hi,

Well as the title suggest:-

1. I'm new here
2. I'm fed up with my Type 2 and everything it brings with it!!! Was diagnosed in Jan 09, so 11 months ago.

Apart from that, ain't life great

Cheers
 
hello

I understand what you are feeling. I was diagnosed with type 1 34 years ago. I would like to understand what bothers you the most so I can try and help. After all this is mu profession...

Hi TS
This may sound awful, but since we are stuck with diabetes, I find the best thing to do is to take the medicine, eat right, exercise and ignore it

hya and a warm welcome to the forum,
im sure most of us have felt fed up with our diabetes, its not nice to have it but saying that there are many worse things to have,
is there anything in particular we may be able to help with
 
Hi there
It's normal to rant and rage about life's "unfairnesses" from time to time! If it gets really bad, consult your doc for referral to a counsellor. But in the meantime, if you hang around here, you may find you can talk to people and normalise it (ha ha) enough that it stops bothering you so much and becomes, as Hana implies, a sort of background to your real life. Totsy's right - just say anything particular people could help with. There's loads of really kind helpful people here who have already helped me loads in the few months I've been walking around in this strange underworld of diabetes!

Hang in there!
